Piss poor lawyer!

I will NEVER recommend this man to anyone. He DOES NOT represent you. All he does is work on getting a plea deal and sending other lawyers to court that have no freaking clue about your case. Don’t waste your money or time!

Traffic Citations

I hired Mr. Appel to represent me for several traffic violations I received while in New Jersey, I am a PA resident. After waiting almost two years, due to Covid, and court dates being postponed, no fault of Mr. Appel, I am very happy with the results from this law firm! After the firm requested disc...overy from the State Police several times, it was never received. Resulting in the case and all charges being dismissed. I did not have to pay any fines or court cost. The fee for the attorney was well worth it (it wasn't much at all)!!

Charlatan and the. Imp

I will be specific! This Atty will take your money and throw you under a bus then he will have Eric the Imp to lie and question you. He will refuse to give your money back. Collude. Make false claims against you and do it with a straight red face. Do not use him. Eric will be your fake lawyer

Incompetant and Unprofessional

I hired this attorney based on his advertisement that indicates he will personally handle your case and it will not be pushed off to another attorney. I was contacted the evening before our court date to request that full payment be made prior to court. We arrived at 9:00 am and sat for 2 hours 45 m...ins waiting on someone name Jose Leon to come and represent us. After sitting through close to 45 cases we were the last ones waiting and the Judge and bailiff starting asking us who we were waiting on as court was over and the prosecutor was on his way out. This guy finally arrives dressed like a delivery guy was here to speak on our behalf and I knew at that point we were in trouble. They ask him who he is there to represent and he calls out some ladies name from his prior case. He finally says the right name and walks in rushing trying to catch the prosecutor before he leaves. He never asked us any questions prior to speaking to the prosecutor. I could hear their conversation and Jose Leon was clearly unprepared to speak on our behalf. He stumbled over his words, not able to answer questions the prosecutor asked. He didn't even know details about the case and had to pull up the information on his cell phone. After I showed my frustration with his inability to perform he then started to speak to us as if the fiasco that what was occurring in front of us was our fault. We would have been better off throwing ourselves on the mercy of the court and we would have had the same end result. Thanks for absolutely nothing! For anyone who is considering them, do yourself a favor and go some place else. I would never recommend this attorney's office nor will I ever hire them in the future.

Dismissed

John Hooper was the point man in this operation did an excellent job to clear my name and get this charge against me dismissed What a relief as I knew all along I was not guilty the facts presented by John along with the reports showed that they had nothing to convict It was a good day when DWI is... tossed out as that rarely happens in the environment we live in at this time I thank all those who in the Appel law group for the help they provided me
